An attempt at a Diary, with the intention of recording my adventures and experiences in an excursion contemplated in Cashmere and adjacent countries-that of Ladâk being a principal object-during six months' leave from my duties at Amritsir.
Several times in former days have I resolved to keep a journal, or jot down briefly the incidents and experiences of each passing day. But as often, after the lapse of a few days, have I failed to persist in the undertaking: whether from infirmity of purpose, or idleness, or from an utter contempt of the 'small beer' I had to chronicle, I do not myself know; and whether I shall be more successful in this present effort remains to be seen. Primary indications are not promising, as I have now been 'en route' from Amritsir, from the 16th to the 29th, thirteen days, and have excused myself, on one ground or other, from making a commencement until now.
To be in order, I must note my preparatory arrangements, detail my supplies-their quality and quantity the number and office of my attendants-the extent of my stud, and the amount and nature of my sporting equipments; especially this latter, as the chase, or, as it is called in India, 'shikar,' is with me a sort of mania, and all that appertains thereto is to me of very great importance. Therefore, as a guide for myself, or to advise others on some subsequent and similar occasion, I must minutely specify my shooting apparatus and fishing appointments, and, in the course of my diary, especially take note of efficiences and deficiences in this respect, as occasion may demand. | null | 5/22/2013 | {"name":"Augustus Henry Irby","num_books":8} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":50},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":25},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":25}} | null |

My Anxious Mind helps teens take control of their anxious feelings by providing cognitive behavioral strategies to tackle anxiety head-on and to feel more confident and empowered in the process.

Dass die perfekt aufeinander abgestimmten Bewegungsabläufe von Pferd und Reiter, die auf Weltniveau zu einer symbiotischen Einheit verschmelzen, keine Hexerei sind, sondern vielmehr das Ergebnis harter und konsequenter Trainingsarbeit, zeigt dieses Buch des berühmten österreichischen Reitlehrers und Dressurrichters Prof. Alfred Knopfhart. Dressur von A bis S wendet sich an den ambitionierten Dressurreiter, dessen Ziel die Turnierreife bis Klasse S ist und der die Bereitschaft zeigt, das nötige persönliche Engagement und den entsprechenden zeitlichen Aufwand zu investieren. Nach bewährten klassischen Ausbildungsmethoden (und entsprechend den aktuell gültigen Regeln der Fédération Equestre Internationale) werden die verschiedenen Dressurlektionen ausführlich und anhand zahlreicher äußerst präziser Zeichnungen erläutert. Das Repertoire reicht von relativ einfachen Übungen wie Zirkel, Volte, Gangartübergängen und Vorhandwendung über mittelschwere Lektionen wie Hinterhandwendung, Schrittpirouette, Schulterherein und Außengalopp bis hin zu den diffizilen Figuren wie Pirouette im Galopp, Schaukel, Piaffe und Passage. Ein Kapitel über das Schulpferd und die "Hohe Schule" vervollständigt die praktischen Anleitungen. Dressur von A bis S ist kein Buch zum freudigen Blä Der Text ist abweisend eng gedruckt, die schematischen Schwarz-Weiß-Zeichnungen rufen oft die Assoziation eines Geometrietafelbildes hervor -- und nicht ein Foto lockert die Ausführungen auf. Doch ein Bilderbuch für pferdeverliebte Mädchen will dieser Führer ja auch nicht sein. Knopfharts Werk ist vielmehr ein nüchternes, exaktes Lehrbuch für all diejenigen, die bereits Feuer für den Dressursport gefangen haben und nun mit dem gezielten Training beginnen möchten. Und als solches ist es ohne Einschränkungen zu empfehlen. --Christoph Nettersheim | null | 1/1/1990 | {"name":"Alfred Knopfhart","num_books":8} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":100},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0}} | null |

And in my opinion, people who use this phrase probably have never had good sex. Isn't it time you did? That's what this book is about.

MEMOIRS OF A WORLD WAR II SOLDIER
THE YEAR WAS 1942 AND THE COUNTRY WAS UNITED in the fight against Germany and Japan. On the home front, all industry was mobilized for war, and the draft boards were collecting young men to join the armed forces. Emmett Lang, a naive 20-year-old, wanted to be a soldier. But even after scoring a nearly perfect score in the Army General Classification Test, he was sent to infantry basic training. Despite this inauspicious beginning, Lang decided he would do his duty and take every opportunity to make his service career as rewarding and enjoyable as possible.
This is the story of Lang's Army career, an honest account that includes letters home, divisional and regimental histories, and after-action reports - with a generous dose of humorous anecdotes. Always a Soldier But Never G.I. contains stories of the action on the front lines in Europe and Battle of the Bulge, and gives an insider's personal view of the life of a World War II soldier-the hardships, adventures, and sometimes the horrors-yet Lang's story is told with wit, humor, and a love of life that cannot be suppressed.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/313930._84 | 313930._84 | '84: The Last of the Great Tigers--Untold Stories From an Amazing Season | ["Eli Zaret"] | 3.86 | 14 | 1 | The 1984 Tigers were one the greatest teams in baseball history. After jumping off to a record 35-5 start, they shook off a determined Toronto team to win the division title, swept Kansas City for the American League Championship, and handily defeated San Diego in a five-game World Series. In doing so, they became just the third team in major league history to lead wire to wire and win the World Series—joining the elite of the the '27 Yankees of Babe Ruth and the '55 Dodgers. And now veteran sportscaster Eli Zaret recreates this extraordinary season in exhilarating detail—from incredible start, through midseason doubts, and on to a dominant postseason finish. Best of all, Zaret provides, for the first time, insights into the season from the key players themselves. The real behind-the-scenes story. We hear from Kirk Gibson, whose home run blast against Goose Gossage clinched the final game of the World Series, about how he pulled himself out of the worst year of his life to play such a key role in the '84 season. And from Jack Morris, the moody leader of the Tigers' pitching corps, who jumped off to an amazing start, fell into an inexplicable personal and professional slump, and then rose to the occasion to help Detroit put the series away. We share the season's intimate details and previously untold moments with Alan Trammell, Willie Hernandez, Chet Lemon, and many more key players. And we get the inside scoop from the maestro himself, Sparky Anderson, who melded a disparate collection of personalities and styles into a unified team, and a winning machine. Zaret shows how General Manager Bill Lajoie completed a brilliant 10-year construction project in assembling the right talent. How critical the performance of the bit players and the role players was in the Tigers' championship season. And how players suddenly cast into the spotlight performed like they never had before and never would again. Zaret also lets us listen in on the negotiations between players and their penny-pinching, old-school CEO Jim Campbell. Fans of any sport will love Zaret's book because it reveals the strategies and inner workings of how a championship is won. Baseball fans will savor this insightful look at a team that has become an icon of the sport. And Tigers fans, who have had to endure much since '84, will be ecstatic in reliving that championship feeling. | ["Baseball"] | 11/1/2003 | {"name":"Eli Zaret","num_books":3} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":7},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":14},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":8,"reviews_percentage":57},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":3,"reviews_percentage":21}} | null |

Psychiatric medications are being used with increasing confidence to treat a variety of child and adolescent disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and Tourette syndrome. For parents, however, deciding whether to allow a child to take medication for an emotional or behavioral problem may be one of the toughest choices they will ever face.

It is at once a strikingly insightful portrait of a mysterious, complex, and sophisticated society, reminiscent of Norman Mailer's "Ancient Evenings" in its wonderful detail and feel for the past, and a fast-paced detective story that reads like the best of twenty-first-century thrillers.From the oldest known court transcripts in history, Egyptologists have long known about the mysterious death of Ramses III, involving intrigue, ambition, greed, and crimes of passion on a huge, though hidden, scale. In "Year of the Hyenas," Brad Geagley takes this event -- a struggle that nearly brought ancient Egypt to its knees -- as the backdrop for a story that is every bit as captivating as the distant civilization it resurrects.
At the heart of the novel is Semerket, the so-called Clerk of Investigations and Secrets, a detective half-paralyzed by problems of his own, with a reputation for heavy drinking and tactless behavior toward the great, the powerful, and the holy, a kind of Sam Spade of the ancient world, deeply (and dangerously) addicted to the truth. Hard-bitten, deeply flawed, he is retained by the authorities to investigate what is considered an insignificant murder of an elderly, insignificant Theban priestess. They fail to inform him, however, that they don't expect him to solve the case. In fact, they don't want him to.
But Semerket is not so easily fooled, and this is hardly an "insignificant" murder. As he delves deeper for the elusive truth, he uncovers a web of corruption so vast that it threatens the life of the last greatPharaoh, Ramses III, and the stability of the kingdom. Even worse, uncovering the conspiracy means more than just putting his own life on the line -- for, unbeknownst to Semerket, his adored ex-wife Naia has fallen afoul of those who would bring down the reign of Ramses, and he soon finds himself having to choose between saving her and saving Egypt....
Merging historical fact and speculation with a nail-biting crime story that could be taking place in the present, "Year of the Hyenas" is a riveting and remarkable achievement. | ["Mystery","Historical Fiction","Egypt","Historical Mystery","Fiction","Historical","Ancient","Africa","Novels","Mystery Thriller"] | 1/1/2005 | {"name":"Brad Geagley","num_books":9,"num_followers":"44"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":8,"reviews_percentage":1},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":30,"reviews_percentage":7},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":118,"reviews_percentage":27},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":167,"reviews_percentage":39},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":100,"reviews_percentage":23}} | "$15.99" |

Adının Sınıf, kapağının kırmızı olması, Devrim Kitabevince basılması; bilirkişiye göre, kitabın yazarının hasta ruhlu olması ve kitabın da edebî açıdan hiçbir değer taşımaması? Ilgazın altı aylık bir cezaya çarptırılmasına neden olur...
1956 yılında İlhan Selçuk yönetimindeki Dolmuş adlı mizah dergisinin Direksiyon, Egzoz ve Çamurluk gibi takma adlar taşıyan yazarları arasına sonradan katıldığı için Stepne adını kullanan Ilgaz, birkaç hafta sonra HABABAM SINIFI adlı yazı dizisini yazmaya başlar. Okurların gösterdiği olağanüstü ilgi, diziyi kitaplaştırır. Kitabın ilk basımında yazar Stepne olarak görülür. Stepnenin kim olduğunun anlaşılması için de bir süre geçmesi gerekmektedir...
Sonrasında Ilgazın kaleme aldığı beş kitaplık bir serüvene dönüşen Hababam Sınıfı, kitaplarıyla olduğu kadar, tiyatro oyunları ve filmleriyle de hepimizin gülümseyerek andığı bir efsaneye dönüşmüştür.
Aydın Ilgaz, babası Rıfat Ilgaz için bu efsanenin SINIF adlı şiir kitabıyla nasıl başladığını, acı-tatlı olaylarla bu efsanesinin bedelinin çok ağır ödenmesine nasıl tanık olduğunu yazıyor Sınıfın Efsanesinde Böylesine benimsediğimiz Hababam Sınıfının yazılmasının, tiyatrolarda kapalı gişe oynamasının, sinema ve televizyonlarda defalarca izlenmesinin ardında hiç bilmediğimiz, kimi zaman hüznün, kimi zaman kahkahanın egemen olduğu bir öykü yatmakta.
Aydın Ilgazın ilk kitabı olan Sınıfın Efsanesi, yalın diliyle ve içten anlatımıyla, Türk edebiyatının elli yıllık hiç bitmeyen coşkusu olan Hababam Sınıfının bilinmeyen yönlerini ortaya çıkarmasıyla ve Rıfat Ilgazın bu eşsiz yapıtını toplumsal açıdan sorgulamasıyla bu alandaki bir boşluğu da dolduruyor

Garison Fitch was a scientist and something of a celebrity in the Soviet Americas in the early 21st century until dropping off the map to pursue his theories in the remote La Plata Canyon. Living in a log home he built himself (which was too close to the Empire of Japan (30 miles to the west) and the Republic of Texas (15 miles to the south), Garison began to experiment with interdimensional travel.
An experiment with such travel surprised him when he landed him in 1744. There he discovered a primitive world of somewhat suspicious people, but a freedom he had never experienced before--which may have been most frightening of all. As he was trying to discover how to return to the future, he met and fell in love with Sarah, a beautiful young woman who is an outcast due to the fact that it was never known who her father was. They married and had three children and he decided to stay in the past and raise his children with the woman he loved.
When he tried to rid himself of his time machine by sending it into the future, however, it took him with it. Now, he finds himself back in the twenty-first century where a woman (Heather) he has never met claims to be his wife and the country he grew up in is gone, replaced by something called “The United States of America”. He quickly realizes that something he did in the past has changed the future but he doesn't know what until he stumbles across a strange item in Heather's purse.
Should he live in this new world, or try to travel once more through time and return the world to “normal”? As he becomes convinced he can’t return to Sarah, he’s not really sure if he can live in this new world he created, either. | ["Paranormal"] | 10/7/2002 | {"name":"Samuel Ben White","num_books":82,"num_followers":"23"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":3},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":7,"reviews_percentage":26},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":8,"reviews_percentage":30},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":10,"reviews_percentage":38}} | "$2.99" |
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32796387-louch | 32796387-louch | Louch | ["Lou Baczewski"] | 3.67 | 6 | 2 | No one has ever combined noodling for catfish, fumbling camping trips, Prohibition gangsters, Paleolithic fishing methods, drunken Polish American Immigrants, WWII tank warfare, mixed nuts, mob run unions, and leaking johnboats into one story - until now. My grandfather’s life story combines a variety of elements into a truly unique and humorous narrative. While sometimes dark and shrouded in horror, yet simultaneously packed with comical vignettes, history, and life lessons, this epic story develops a broad picture of the legacy of an amazing life; and it imparts wisdom for our time and beyond.
Louis Baczewski, “Louch” and five friends grew up during the Great Depression battling a muddy grungy creek named Shoal. It was on this stream in rural Illinois, that they fished with only the crudest methods to seize the roughest of fish. They lived off the creek in a style similar to the fabled stories of Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer. All five of these friends would end up fighting in Europe in the US First Army- Louch and two others would ultimately survive. They were from a small town of only 800 people, but all their paths crossed during the war; some in absolutely miraculous ways. Along the banks of Shoal Creek, my grandfather would tell me stories of his life, while he also taught me the same fishing methods that he and his friends and brothers had learned so long ago. Although they were arduous and archaic, I chose to never forget them. There was wisdom and stillness to be gained from fishing Shoal Creek. There was an ethic of life and hard work taught to me and all my family there. Fishing Shoal helped my grandfather forget the war, just as it eventually helped me throughout my own life. The word “shoal” itself means shallow, yet this creek ran deep through our family history and it is the tie that binds this vast story together. This book flows from Pocahontas Illinois, to WWII Europe, and back home again.
As part of the 3rd Armored Division, Louch survived five major European campaigns, battled “Hitlers Own” SS Division in the Battle of the Bulge, liberated the Dora-Mittlebau concentration camp and V2 missile factory, only to return home and tangle with mob run unions and desperate times. He was one of only a handful of men in his entire company to survive the war. Despite all the trials and tribulations of his life, Louch never lost his humanity. His story is one that few will forget.

The bourgeois fashion for new visual media - from prints and illustrated books to theatrical spectacles and panoramas - rejected high. Romantic concepts of original genius and the sublime in favor of mass-produced images and the thrill of realistic effects. In response, the literary elite declared the new visual media an offense to Romantic idealism. 'Simulations of nature,' Coleridge declared, are 'loathsome' and 'disgusting.' The Shock of the Real offers a tour of Romantic visual culture, from the West End stage to the tourist-filled Scottish Highlands, from the panoramas of Leicester Square to the photography studios of Second Empire Paris. But in presenting the relation between word and image in the late Georgian age as a form of culture war, the author also proposes an alternative account of Romantic aesthetic ideology - as a reaction not against the rationalism of the Enlightenment but against the visual media age being born. | null | 2/13/2001 | {"name":"Gillen D'Arcy Wood","num_books":25,"num_followers":"7"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":50},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":50}} | null |

Restricted Pakistan blends history, current events and testimonies to tell the story of Christian persecution in Pakistan. Despite the persecution and government oppression, Christians hold fast to their hope in Jesus.

Believing myself to be highly ineffectual, I left the field of mental health. Years later, I was introduced to the methods of a treatment philosophy known as Neuro-Linguistic Programming ("NLP"). I subsequently came to realize that I had not been an inadequate counselor; instead, I had been a counselor who was trained to use insufficient if not wholly ineffective techniques. Learning NLP rekindled my interest in change work and gave me the tools I needed to be a potent agent of change for both myself and others. "Neuro" refers to the fact that we take in information using our five senses (our neurology). "Linguistic" refers to the way in which we use language and non-verbal symbols to organize our thoughts and perceptions. "Programming" refers to the idea that we can change our patterns of thoughts and behaviors (the programs established in childhood) and decide how, as adults, we will choose to experience our world. Whether you are a therapist looking for additional "tools for your toolbox" or an individual seeking personal growth and development, this book will allow you - Discover the remarkable power of NLP to create lasting change; - Learn proven methods for creating change at the level of the unconscious mind; - "Anchor" resourceful feelings in order to access them later, on demand; - Gain the ability to clearly and honestly express your feelings; - Heal emotional wounds of the past once and for all; - Master your present circumstances to build a life of both peace and passion; and - Create a compelling future filled with exquisite joy. | null | 10/1/2005 | {"name":"Patricia Casner","num_books":1} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0}} | null |

All proceeds benefit the Whittier Birthplace museum. John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892) worked, among other occupations, as a newspaper reporter and editor before his poetry propelled him into the American consciousness. But once a journalist, always a journalist. He applauded a well-reported crime as only a former editor could do. His works promoting abolitionism appealed to humanity and treated specific cases as criminal proceedings. And scattered in his prose and poetry celebrating religion and rural life are works derived from famous crimes. After all, what’s a little murder among friends? Stories by Edith Maxwell, John G. Whittier, Pete Rawlik, Vicki Weisfeld, Ken Faig, Jr., William Cullen Bryant, David Bernard, Susan Oleksiw, Kristi Petersen Schoonover, Gregory L.

Kidnapped, made a slave--Pearl doesn't understand why God abandoned her to such a horrible existence. Another time traveler works for her master, and the chance of finding the wormhole that robbed them both of normal, just might be worth putting up with his incessant teasing. Might. An Aussie stockman turned fleet helmsman, Trey Bradley has spent years building a life for himself in Alexandria. When his boss decides to use Pearl as a bargaining tool in a summons with the Emperor Nero, he asks Trey to accompany them as her translator. Trey wants to help Pearl escape as he's helped countless others, but God says "no". How can he help deliver Pearl to Nero and live with himself? Can that truly be what God wants? As they journey to Rome, Pearl and Trey struggle to set aside their ambitions and choose God's will above their own, even at the cost of life and love. | ["Historical Fiction"] | 9/14/2015 | {"name":"G.L.
